I think donating sperm is considered onanous, rather than onerous.
It could be onanously onerous or onerously onanous.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Heh. Good point.
Whenever I hear about Onan, I think about his spilling semen on the ground and God smiting him. Also, emergency power generators.
Huh. Apparently Onan got bought out by Cummins. So now they're Cummins Onan

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
DCA, Lisa. Thanks, Sparky! I am hoping for the best. And trying to look at Amtrak, although the wifi in here sucks, and I hope we're about to get on the plane.... Wish me luck!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Tep, I don't see how cookie making counts as onerous.
That's like when people put "Clean off Tivo by watching lots of shows" on their to-do list. Cheating. That's what that is.
Nah, man, it was HARROWING. There was stirring! And turning on the stove! And licking my fingers!
...well, I *did* have to fend off the dog, who loves peanut butter as much as I do, and refused to vacate the kitchen as soon as he realized I was making something with His Yummy Treat.
Eh, if it wasn't obvious that I was being facetious about baking peanut-butter cookies as onerous, too bad.

We had crazy thunderstorms and a tornado warning here last night.
I just found out the large tree behind my mother's house was blown over. It hit the house, but fortunately hit the garage side. She's already gotten someone to take it away and it sounds like the roof damage isn't structural. The good news is that was a really ugly tree. I can joke because I'm not the one who just wrote a large check to the tree guy.

I got some work done today, but it's not finished. I also went to get groceries even though it's pissing rain and blowing a gale.

Yikes, Ginger! So glad she wasn't hurt.

Point!

But you're still sending me a box of cookies, right?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Now I want peanut butter cookies. Only I think the SO would kill me, since he's already harping on about how my banana bread messed with his weight loss. Tough, buddy, it was an observance. Plus, I am not the keeper of how much banana bread you eat.
I just did my seed starts! It was not onerous! It was a fun task! But it needed to be done. And now it is, yay.
Okay, I think next up is budget.
